Roblox immediately crashing on startup

This morning Roblox randomly stopped working after an update, whenever I open a game or the launcher itself Roblox will flash on screen for less than a second before closing. I have checked logs and no crash log is produced meawhile the session log just stops at a random point which is different on every attempt. Before the update this morning it was working fine, the issue happens no matter how I try to start it, be it from the website or trying to just open the launcher.

I tried several things to get this fixed:

  • Resintalling Roblox
  • Trying the Microsoft Store Version of the App
  • Compatibility Mode
  • Executing as Administrator
  • Disabling Anti-Virus
  • Manually adding Roblox to my firewall
  • Completely clearing out every roblox file, temp and cache

It’s worth noting that when I try to uninstall the app, the uninstaller itself has the same issue where it will flash for a moment and close without finishing uninstalling so I had to reinstall everything by manually clearing out the files.
No crash log is produced whenever I try to open it and the session log pretty much just randomly ends at a different point each time, the installer log however shows an error when attempting to start the client:

OH MY GOD SOMEONE IS HAVING THIS ISSUE TOO THANK YOU FOR PROVING IM NOT SCHIZO

I think this has to be some error with Hyperion or something, because this has happened only AFTER the update for some reason. It should be reverted and I’ve likely messed some stuff up in my system to try to get Roblox working, which at this point likely isn’t my PC at all

This same thing has been happening to me to. It’s been freezing on and off every 1 minute it does it, this is very frustrating. Does anyone have any ideas of how to solve it?

Yeah I thought it could be related to that since I saw some people mentioning it on forums but after trying out every solution that worked for those people, I came out empty handed so it might be something different

after messing around for a few hours i’ve seem to fix mine.
Steps:
Uninstall Roblox,
Make sure there is no roblox folder in \AppData\Local,
Remove the Roblox Folder in %temp%,
If you have roblox from the windows app store uninstall that version as well.

install roblox via playing a game. Wait for roblox to load.

I also removed the roblox from the registry but I don’t recommend touching the registry unless you know what you are doing.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\roblox-player
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ROBLOX Corporation

I was also able to replicate this issue via launching roblox twice so try not to double click the play button.

This is still occurring for me. I’ve provided my ROBLOX log above. Me and my friend both crashed while playing a game, the game crashed at the same time. I was on PC and he was on mobile. And by the game crashed I mean the whole ROBLOX window closed with no error no nothing, it just ended the process while we were playing at the exact same time.
